I have a MacBook Pro, MacBook, Apple Watch, and iPhone 8. I travel with the MacBook, watch, and iPhone. With just this Charger and correct cables I am able to eliminate all of the unique charging bricks for each device. I am planning to buy another just for home use to help clean up power cables and wire clutter.

I originally bought this to travel with but have decided to keep it at home because it looks so nice (love the braided cord with the 90 degree connection to the wall). Everything about the product screams quality, from the materials to the packaging. I'm using it with various iOS devices and a 15" MacBook Pro. I plug the MacBook Pro power adapter into one of the side outlets and charge my iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch via the USB connections. The charger does not produce enough power to charge the battery of the MacBook Pro via the USB-C connector but even with the original MacBook Pro power adapter plugged into the side it is much cleaner than the power strip I was using with all the individual power adapters coming out of it.

Be aware of what you are buying

"MACBOOK CHARGING LIMITATION: USB-C Port will NOT re-charge a Macbook or Macbook Pro when the device is in use. Will allow slow charging of a Macbook or Macbook Pro while asleep and will reduce battery drain while in use"
Not sure why anyone would buy a "charger" that doesn't charge when you are using your laptop.

Warning: USB-C input suspect; see reviews; NOT for iPad Pro 2018

Other reviews note the same problem I had...
I just reported this to Apple Support. My new 2018 iPad Pro 12.9 does not probably charge when I plug the cable it came with directly into the USB-C input on this Native Union SMART Hub Bridge Charger. When I also use the AC adapter that came with my iPad Pro, and plug THAT into the Native Union and plug my iPad Pro cable into this adapter, it's fine -- the charge holds steady and the device charges at a sufficient rate. So, this may just be a very expensive adapter with three USB A inputs and two 3-prong AC inputs.
I just spoke to two Jasons at Apple Support. One is a senior tech person. What I learned is, even though this is an Apple-certified product, because it pre-dates the new 2018 iPad Pros, it has not been certified for that product. It could not have been, actually, since it pre-dates it.
This could be a problem, and I hope Apple tests it thoroughly and pulls it from its stores and Web site if it is not 100% up to snuff. I am also contacting Native Union directly so they are aware of this problem.

The specs fail to mention that this only operates with 110V AC, not a more universal 100-240V AC. This means it cannot be used overseas, where the voltage is more commonly 220V. I would have not purchased this if I had known.

This only acts as a trickle charger for MacBooks. The physical Apple stores sell this as an alternative to the standard wall charger, however it is ONLY effective as a trickle charger... WHEN THE MacBook is not in use. You cannot run & charge your MacBook with this device.
1 star because as many others have pointed out: it is not a hub. It is not a bridge. It is also not a real charger.
Per their website, but not on the physical packaging: "It does have a MACBOOK CHARGING LIMITATION: USB-C Port will NOT re-charge a Macbook or Macbook Pro when the device is in use. Will allow slow charging of a Macbook or Macbook Pro while asleep and will reduce battery drain while in use." - Native Union
